Ronaldo targets legend status

an interesting comment ->

I'm slightly bemused by Bryan Robson joining Denis Law to tell Cristiano Ronaldo that if he leaves Old Trafford the only way is downhill to obscurity.

How come no one told Jaap Stam that? After leaving United he won the Italian Cup at Lazio, reached the Champions League Final with AC Milan, and won the Dutch Cup with Ajax.

Ruud van Nistelrooy clearly wasn't listening either when he went on to win La Liga twice with Real Madrid and a nomination for FIFA World Player of the Year.

Diego Forlan? How his goalscoring touch deserted him and his profile plummeted at Villarreal.

As for that David Beckham, he really slipped under the radar. He won La Liga with Real Madrid, developed his global fame to such an extent Arena named him the most influential British male under 40, and five years on, he still plays for England.

Maybe I'm being a bit harsh on the United legends. Maybe they're talking about players who left in the days before foreigners dominated the dressing room.

No, hang on, what's that shiny thing on Gordon Strachan's mantelpiece? Oh yes, a league title winners' medal.

So, Bryan and Denis, early dementia it is then?

interesting question..

I was watching Portugal game and when Ronaldo get the ball, it was mixed feelings..

cause you want him to do well, but you know he no longer wants to play for MU.

but to be fair, his "diving" are far and few now..

anyway, in the match, you see Nani, and he seems so unpolished.. Quite a worry..

I think next season is Pool to lose.. They are the most stable. With chelsea, Gunners and MU in such turmoils, they are the one who can win all.

If only Liverpool can maintain their form throughout the season, then they can be considered as title contenders.

Keep on losing to minor teams and then a last minute push near the end of the season will not help them.

I always think if a player is loyal to his club, he has all my respect. Yes, thanks to ronaldo's goals, perhaps we have clinched the double. But if he wants to move on then go ahead, and lose the very bit of respect that everyone is ready to give him. Not say the club is going for the money and sell him for insane profits, it wasn't their intention to sell him. He has already voiced out his wants and intentions, then carry on but don't expect to be honoured for it.

pool is a big mystery to me..

they got the best striker, the best midfield combo, one of the best defences, and one sound keeper.. tell me, where is the error? for me, would be Rafa..

but then most pool fans would disagree with me so... let's drop tat.

use your brains to think can? ronaldo already won the champions league and EPL with man u. the challenge is to see if he can win the champions league with another clubs. seedorf won it with three different clubs. how many players can boast that record in the champions league? what incentive is there for ronaldo to stay when he has already won what he wanted in England? its just like ronaldinho won the la liga title, champions league in same season, won individual awards but stayed on at barcelona and lost motivation cos he needed a new challenge. do you know what you are talking? what the fuck.

Well, I think Ronaldo wanted to play with Real Madrid all his life, it is his dream.But when he started in Sporting, he wasn't going to do that. Only when he came to United, got polished, won the league and European Champions, now, RealM put the red carpet out for him.

The key here is before a transfer can be done for a contracted player, the clubs needs to talk and then personal terms, like for Beckham, Heinze, RuudVN. But in this case, RM did it in their way again. They go out and enticed the player and then ask them to strike at their club. Now, I think that's a bit unprofessional don't you think? Did they do it with Zidane? Figo?

No.. but why now? Cause United doesn't want to sell...

Real went to papers and announced they got an offer of 75M, 300000 pounds after tax per week, and it is not going to be on the table next year. And they tell the world, they did NOTHING to lure Ronaldo. Are we all 3 yrs old kids?

End of day, given how Ronaldo has voiced out, I think it is good to sell him. Cause his heart is gone. No point repairing a broken mirror. Let him go try and win whatever he dreams of winning in La Liga if he can or his team can.

MU just has to get back all they have put in him like the polishing/nuturing, the sheltering after the WC.

And the sum is not 75m, not 100m, cause if RealM values him @ 0.5B, then MU should sell him for 0.5B so no loss. Right? We should all profit from the deal, a win-win right? So deal or no deal?
